- 2 years ago
A rail worker has told how he believes Boris Johnson should be “out of Parliament” as he backed the train strikes set to cause chaos up and down the country.
It comes as RMT leader Mick Lynch confirmed the strike action scheduled for this week, sparked by union anger over cuts to jobs, conditions, pay and pensions, will go ahead.
Speaking to LondonWorld, South West Railway gateline assistant Tom Pew, who works at Clapham Junction station in south London, said: “I'm going to be supporting the strike.
“I'm going to be wherever they tell me to hold the banner and we are going to save ourselves, protect our jobs and the most important thing is we get a bloody good pay rise.”
